“Alta Mora Guardiola” Rosso Etna DOC 2015

Cusumano | Sicily
Cusumano S.r.l. | SS 113 Km 307 | Contrada San Carlo | IT 90047 Partinico

Guardiola, a cru from Nerello Mascalese, shows the typical elegant aroma from volcanic soils. Fine raspberry fruit, gentle acidity and silky tannins, full and ripe but never too full-bodied. A modern drop from traditional vine. SUPERIORE.DE

"A savory red, with hints of smoky bacon fat and spice accenting the cherry coulis, dried sage and rose hip flavors. Balanced, featuring creamy tannins on the well-spiced, fresh finish. Drink now through 2027." Wine Spectator

"Lively bright red-ruby. Red and black fruit macerated in alcohol, flint, botanical herbs and a whiff of alcohol on the opulent nose. Then ripe and broad in the mouth too, with rich, dense flavors and a mouthcoating texture with similar aromas. Finishes long and savory." Vinous

"Bilberries, fruit tea, citrus, oranges, fresh raspberries, orange blossom, nectarines and wild strawberries. So Burgundian on the palate, the fine and silky tannins encasing beautiful, energetic and exciting red fruit. Powerful acidity closes this off nicely. So elegant." James Suckling

"From a warm and sun-soaked vintage, the 2015 Etna Rosso Guardiola (made with 100% Nerello Mascalese) shows lots of fruit richness with black currant, dried cherry and dark plum. This is a wine of substantial fiber and succulence. The mouthfeel is layered and rich with softly integrated tannins and firm structure at the back. The fruit is concentrated and dense. One reason is because it is harvested from precious 120-year-old vines. Only 5,310 bottles were released." Robert Parker
